Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch

In Wales (UK) there is a village called Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch (58 letters), which in English means "Saint Mary's Church in the hollow of white hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the Church of Saint Tysilio near the red cave." The locals call it Llanfairpwll. Llanfai.....gogogoch.com is the longest single word domain name in the world. If you don't believe me, copy and paste it on your browser to visit. If a tourist memorizes the whole name and pronounces it accurately, don't they deserve to receive free holidays there? After all, how many people in the world know about this place and how many of them who will ever visit can pronounce it right? Come on, free holidays to Llanfairpwll...#$%^**$% lol
